Retirement Community in the Heart of Seattle
Horizon House has been an essential part of the fabric of downtown Seattle and the First Hill neighborhood since 1961. We are a non-profit, Life Plan Community, dedicated to supporting residents to live their best lives throughout all the stages of their retirement years.
We welcome people of all backgrounds, creeds, and beliefs. We welcome diversity with open arms. But our residents do have one thing in common: they have been—and continue to be—part of the beating heart of this beautiful, slightly offbeat, and richly textured city of Seattle we call home.
